A recipe for folding knife success: Start with hard-use rated lock. Add a blade made of exotic high carbon steel. Manufacture it in Golden, Colorado using precise tolerances then add a healthy dash of American innovation. These ingredients are the Manix 2, a concoction of solo features when combined make one of the strongest knives from Spyderco to date. Patented by Spyderco, the Manix 2 has a Ball Bearing Lock. It’s a hardened free-floating ball bearing contained in a custom hi-tech polymer cage. The round ball bearing allows the lock to self adjust across a large surface, smoothly and consistently locking-up with solid confidence. Evolving over time, the Ball Bearing Lock’s strength withstands hard work with a secure, versatile and comfortable grip. Ergonomics are peerless in this design. The blade is S30V and flat-ground with aggressive thumb serrations (jimping) above a super sized 14mm Spyderco Round Hole. The Jimping doesn’t stop there. With full steel liners the scales have jimping that extends beyond the G-10 handle scales scalloping areas of the handle’s perimeter. This one is not slipping out of your hand and works well with gloves on! The liners pull double purpose by adding rigidly and lightweight strength to the handle. A three-screw clip is left/right-hand carry, positioned for comfort and deep pocket carry. The knife also has a large lanyard pipe to protect various types of cords or thongs.

G10 Handles
Formed in a sheet under high pressure by combining fiberglass and an epoxy resin binder. These handles are lightweight and shaped to ensure a solid grip.

If you want a knife that holds an edge, locks like a steel trap, and grips like superglue, then get a Manix 2. That being said, the clip is not the tightest fit and the spoon sticks out and allows for the knife to snag on equipment and slip out of BDU pants in inopportune situations (not good in the back of the ambulance). Also, spyderco could have milled out the liners to lessen the weight.

My new Manix knife is great, Super sharp out of the box, switched the clip for Left pocket Tip up carry, with no issues. Well made here in the USA. Great cutter, thumb jimping on spine for sturdy grip, Did not think I would enjoy the blade shape style originally prior to my initial Spyderco purchase in February but now think of the ";leaf," blade style as a good one. Opening and closing the knife is effortless.

One of my favorite knifes. I own several Spyderco’s and so far this is my favorite. Super sharp out of the box. The overall quality is excellent. I espically like the weight of the knife. It’s a little heavier than the other Spyderco’s I own which Is a real plus. I have big hands and tend to like knifes that weigh a little more and this one is perfect.
